Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

When the IOTLB device is enabled, the log_guest_addr that is passed by userspace to the VHOST_SET_VRING_ADDR ioctl, and which is then written to vq->log_addr, is a GIOVA. All writes to this address are translated by log_user() to writes to an HVA, and then ultimately logged through the corresponding GPAs in log_write_hva(). No logging will ever occur with vq->log_addr in this case. It is thus wrong to pass vq->log_addr and log_guest_addr to log_access_vq() which assumes they are actual GPAs. Introduce a new vq_log_used_access_ok() helper that only checks accesses to the log for the used structure when there isn't an IOTLB device around.
